"We went in this morning everyone was so helpful. I was in a wheelchair (mom) get through the lines. Team work make the dream work. Ms. Nelson helped us she was very nice and professional."

"Got there at 830 and the line was already around the corner...doors opened about 840 and you get a ticket based on the reason you're there. I was #27 for a replacement social security card and was out by 9:23 a.m. fast and efficient...unfortunately you cant get a card on the spot...they mail it to you in 5-7 days."
Tyler Davis - July, 2018
"Some of the staff are great and some are not. Be ready for a long wait. Parking is horrible. Don’t be surprised if your number gets skipped. Lady doing security work is very helpful."
Meadow Margeaux - February, 2020
"I sent my passport, marriage certificate along with my application for the new card. The SSA lost all of my documents!! I have proof it was delivered. I called them and no one knows where my application or my documents are. I've sent several emails as well with no response. It has been months and they do not care. Very disappointed!!"

Navigating the Social Security Office during COVID-19
Today, applying for Social Security benefits or a card can usually be handled online or by phone, without
needing to make an appointment at your local Social Security office. We break down the answers to some of the
most frequently asked questions around navigating Social Security from home.
Which Social Security benefits am I eligible for?
Your Social Security income is made up of 3 potential benefits. Your earned benefit, your spousal
benefit and your survivor benefit. The eligibility for each of these benefits depends on a number of
factors including your income, marital status, and length of marriage.
Find out the benefits you are eligible for and what your income with our 2-minute quiz.
For most people applying for benefits, you can apply online or over the phone, and skip going to the office altogether. Use a checklist to ensure you have all the information and documentation you need to apply.
Funeral homes typically handle reporting of a death to the SSA.
However, you will need to provide the funeral home with the deceased’s Social Security number for them to do so. Note that deaths cannot be reported online.
If you want to report the person’s death yourself, call the SSA at 1-800-772-1213 (TTY 1-800-325-0778) between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. Monday through Friday.
You also visit your local Social Security office in person.
Our guide on Social Security survivors benefits helps to navigate your options in order to make the most of what you are owed after a death.
If your Social Security card is lost or stolen, you can get a replacement card free of charge.
Log into—or create an account on —
My Social Security,
and you can apply directly there. However, you will need to provide original documentation in order to create an account.
Our guide explains what you need to replace the card.
What should I do if I get a call from a potential Social Security scammer?
Scam calls from Social Security have increased, particularly since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic.
These fraudsters might claim there is a problem with your Social Security account, benefits, or number.
They will often solicit or demand some form of payment in exchange for resolving the problem.
If you receive a questionable call, hang up and immediately report the call directly to the
Office of the Social Security Inspector General.
As new scams emerge every day, it’s critical to stay informed of the latest scams in order to keep yourself and your finances safe online.
Read the summary above to see if you need to go in to the office. If you are looking to get answers
to questions but don’t need the office, check our FAQ.
You may need documents like your US passport, US birth certificate, Social Security card, divorce
decree or others.
See our checklist for full details depending on your situation.
